About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own the steel category: structural steel and fabricated assemblies feeding the modular manufacturing line and site builds.
Source fabrication capacity across regional shops so throughput scales with the build plan, not with one shop's backlog.
Negotiate raw material and fabrication pricing with mechanisms that survive commodity swings.
Qualify fabricators on quality and capacity, and manage the load balancing across them weekly.

Requirements

What you’ll need

You've sourced structural steel or fabricated steel assemblies at industrial volume.
You understand fabrication economics: material, labor, coatings, and freight, and where each shop makes its margin.
You've qualified fabrication shops and caught the capacity overstatements in their pitch.
You manage commodity exposure with indexing or hedging rather than hoping.
Bonus: AISC-certified fabrication networks. Modular construction. Weld quality programs. Logistics for oversize loads.
